Cork has officially been submerged under water! (Pictures courtesy of M and N: Above: M's front garden, the hedge is 5feet tall! To left: Cork City Centre)
College was cancelled but fortunately I just got an email there saying the ball this evening has not been cancelled. I'll probably be bringing along some wellies so I can walk around town later on so pictures to follow of course! The river Lee burst its banks some time last night and loads of my friends have been badly affected by it. Literally all of the student accommodation at Victoria's Cross is submerged under a good few feet of water and electricity has been cut. My friend T is stranded in her apartment as the water rises up to 4meters at the bottom of her hill!
Tragically 4 girls passed away in a severe road traffic accident in Galway due to the bad weather conditions. Furthermore, all of the flooding can't be helping the search for missing Cork student Brian O Tuama. Hopefully some resolution will follow soon for everyone involved.

This is so scary. I hope you and your friends are safe!
Thanks so much! We're all fine although LJ from SOS had to move in with me. Luckily no one was injured so I'm sure things will work out :-)
